Elemental Foundation
w/ Amenti MoveMeant
Monday - Friday, June 23rd - 27th
12:00pm - 06.00pm

Amenti’s Elemental Foundation is a unique five-day MoveMeant course in embodied practice. It offers a distinctive blend of dance, movement, and psychological understanding, deepening our relationship with our bodies like no other course.

This week was developed to enhance self-expression and better understand the connection between our body and mind by exploring five layers of our MoveMeant Method in its foundation.

The layers of physicality, sensations, power, connection, and symbols will be the focus; we’ll dive into these human concepts by referring to the elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Light.

The five MoveMeant layers, each representing a specific area of life and your character, are deeply personal and universally relatable. They link to a way of moving and an element reflecting your unique journey. They offer valuable insights into your identity and provide tools for self-awareness, pattern rewiring, and improvement in various life areas.

By actively participating in this course, you will experience personal growth, not just as a person but also as a mover and dancer. You will gain a unique vocabulary and language for self-expression, empowering you to communicate authentically in five different characteristic ways.

About the artists
Amenti MoveMeant & Gil’ The Grid’ Gomes Leal

Amenti MoveMeant is a community-based organization and a decolonial psyche-somatic MoveMeant medicine. The foundation of our Method and our way of working as a team lie in the pillars of the original hip-hop culture: peace, Love, Unity, Respect, Having Fun, and Self Knowledge.

Gil’ The Grid’ Gomes Leal, our organization’s founder and the creator of our Method, was a professional hip-hop dancer for years before developing our teachings. The Amenti MoveMeant Method is a comprehensive approach to self-awareness through the body. We view our human experience as a holistic system – comprising the body, the mind, and the soul (or spirit). The Method incorporates dance, (Jungian)psychology, somatic exercises, and shamanism. We draw from a wealth of global knowledge to provide a complete understanding of life. By comprehending our individual choices and their impact on our lives, we find harmony, agency, and self-acceptance.

At the heart of everything we do is the community, the collective. We believe that to understand ourselves is to understand others, and vice versa. Our fellow participants are our mirrors, reflecting our choices, experiences, traumas, and joys. This is why all our teachings are conducted in groups. By inviting others into our healing journey, we foster empathy and connection, creating a sense of belonging that is innate and essential.

Amenti MoveMeant’s Method is a transformative method created by Gil Gomes Leal. It spreads awareness about the connection between the body and mind and gives tools for expanding self-expression and awareness. The Method consists of seven layers, each connecting to a specific life area.

Through our workshops and courses, you can learn from us, as well as our expertise in dance and understanding of the human mind and ego. We work with the body in connection to the mind because they are interconnected. Approaching our human experience holistically gives us agency over our lives and gets us in tune with all the subtle messages our body and mind give us daily.
